Summary of the contracting process

The UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) has recently finalised a variation to its contract with Diasorin Limited for the provision of MicroPlex® Microspheres, a procurement categorised under laboratory reagents (CPV code 33696500). This process falls under the 'award' stage, having been completed with an announcement on 8th November 2024. The contract, originally initiated as a selective procurement method via a call-off from a framework agreement, has seen its value increased to £2,240,000 and its duration extended by one year, now set to conclude on 29th September 2025. The procurement caters to diverse regions, including the British Overseas Territories, Channel Islands, Europe, Isle of Man, the Rest of the World, and the United Kingdom.

This tender provides significant opportunities for businesses involved in the supply of specialised laboratory reagents, particularly those with capabilities aligned to long-term contractual engagements. Although the procurement targets a specific supplier market and does not suit small and medium enterprises (SMEs) or voluntary, community and social enterprises (VCSEs), companies like Diasorin Limited, which have the scale and resources to meet the contract requirements, will find it advantageous. This procurement underscores the importance of participating in framework agreements to gain access to recurring and extended contract opportunities in the health security sector.
